One more detail: Currently none of the texlive packages require 
fontconfig, so the user might not have fc-cache.  Maybe the calls to 
fc-cache should be conditioned on [ -x /usr/bin/fc-cache ].

Alternatively, we could add fontconfig as a dependency of all the 
texlive packages that will call fc-cache.  Currently those are

texlive-collection-basic
texlive-collection-context
texlive-collection-fontsextra
texlive-collection-fontsrecommended
texlive-collection-langcjk
texlive-collection-langcyrillic
texlive-collection-langfrench
texlive-collection-langindic
texlive-collection-latexextra
texlive-collection-mathextra
texlive-collection-metapost
texlive-collection-pictures
texlive-collection-science
texlive-collection-xetex

And the following packages will call fc-cache once they are rebuilt:

texlive-collection-games
texlive-collection-langafrican
texlive-collection-langarabic
texlive-collection-langczechslovak
texlive-collection-langgreek
texlive-collection-langhebrew
texlive-collection-langmongolian
texlive-collection-langpolish
texlive-collection-langvietnamese
texlive-collection-music
texlive-collection-omega

In any case, fontconfig definitely should be required by 
texlive-collection-xetex, since xetex explicitly uses fontconfig.
